It hasn't ended yet. I'm still looking for faucet handles.

I do have skills with tools and I have tools. Why am I going to the muffler shop?

I've been searching online to find an escutcheon to fit between the faucet handle and wall but so far no luck. The flange has to be at least 2 1/2" in diameter on the outer measurement and center hole 1/4" . It would have to be very thin as well and this is why someone suggested buying a...

Hi Everyone, I'm brand new here and need help. My mother's house was built in 1959 and might have the original bathtub faucet handles. I noticed that one or both of them were leaking so I tried to replace them. After going to Home Depot five times I ended up having to use 'universal'...
